NAME:

the cold hand

The weather had turned pretty cold. Dino is riding his bike home from hiding. After walking a short distance, he stops.
– Oh, my hands are cold! - He mutters. Dino takes a glove from his pocket and puts it on.
“Where's my other glove? I think I lost her,” he thinks, reaching into his other empty pocket. And go back to pedaling.
The icy wind blows hard on his bare hand. Dino's little fingers are frozen and asleep.

Finally, he comes home. He parks his bike and prepares to get off. Dino can't open his hand!
He carries the bike to the front door and rings the bell with his bare hand.
Mom opens the door.
- Mommy! Help! My hand froze! - He cries.
Mom runs to him.
– Oh, poor thing! Bring your bike inside and stand by the fireplace while I get you some warm water,” Mom says, running into the kitchen.
In an instant, she's back. She rubs Dino's hand. Gradually, he begins to feel his little fingers. Then he lets go of the handlebars.
“I'll never lose my glove again,” Dino whines.
The mother smiles.
“Let's have some hot chocolate to get warm,” she whispers, hugging Dino.
